TUNISIA · REGION
The pick of Tunisia.
Our pick of the 5 best monastir tours — the standouts worth building a day around, with what to expect and how to book each one.
Two-day tour from Sousse: El Jem, Matmata cave homes, Douz desert night, Chott el Jerid, Star Wars set, and Kairouan.
“Pleasant experience, at times the drive was long, especially the second day. Made stops along the way but was a very long day. Very early morning. Great guide and driver.”
Private horseback riding from Monastir with pick-up, safety coaching, and scenic countryside or beach routes for all levels.
“Best experience in sousse and a must do activity. We had great time. It was our almost first time horse riding experience and we enjoyed a lot. Guide took us though racing tracks between golf course and over to the beach and house walked on the sea side with mesmerising views. Worth every penny!”
Private half-day from Monastir to El Jem: UNESCO amphitheatre and museum mosaics with hotel pickup, 4–5 hours, entry included.
“Our trip felt like 3 friends out for a day, Ala took all our needs into account. We enjoyed it so much we booked to go to Cathage and Sidi Bou Said only if he could take us. El Jem tips, if you want to go up to top tier, wear sensible shoes. The museum…”
Monastir day trip to Sidi Bou Said, Carthage, and Tunis medina with small-group comfort, free admissions, and optional monument fees.
“Guide was great, excellent communication before and during the excursion. Was able to answer all questions about the history and culture that was asked. Transport was modern clean and very comfortable”
Full-day tour from Sousse-area hotels to Kairouan’s mosques and El Jem’s Roman amphitheatre, with guided visits and buffet lunch.
